“The Linux kernel is under the GPL version 2. Not anything else. Some individual files are licensable under v3, but not the kernel in general. And quite frankly, I don't see that changing. I think it's insane to require people to make their private signing keys available, for example. I wouldn't do it. So I don't think the GPL v3 conversion is going to happen for the kernel, since I personally don't want to convert any of my code. You think v2 or later is the default. It's not. The _default_ is to not allow conversion. Conversion isn't going to happen.” PeopleThinkingWantHappensIndividualExampleKeysConversationAvailableConversionVersionsInsaneCodeFilesDefaultSigningLinuxKernel Author:Linus Torvalds
“When I have my interview with my God, our conversation will focus on the individuals whose self-esteem I was able to strengthen, whose faith I was able to reinforce, and whose discomfort I was able to assuage—a doer of good, regardless of what assignment I had. These are the metrics of that matter in measuring my life. This realization, which occurred nearly fifteen years ago, guided me every day to seek opportunities to help people in ways tailored to their individual circumstances. My happiness and my sense of worth has been immeasurably improved as a result.” PeopleWayYearsHas BeensSelfMatterHelpingAbleOpportunityIndividualResultsFocusSelf EsteemCircumstancesConversationYears AgoEsteemRealizationInterviewsFifteenDiscomfortAssignmentsMeasuringDoersFifteen YearsMetricsTailored Author:Clayton Christensen

“The hours spent viewing TV are hours not available for actively participating in the real world, or playing, or being involved with friends and family. Watching television is an individual activity that tends to discourage interaction with others; as viewing time increases, family communication time decreases. As family communication decreases, people grow more distant from each other and may even forget how to carry on a good conversation.” PeopleWorldMayRealIndividualGrowsHoursForgetTelevisionTvsCommunicationInvolvedActivityConversationIncreaseAvailableReal WorldInteractionFamily And FriendsDiscouragingDecreaseParticipatingWatching TelevisionGood ConversationInteraction With Others Author:Louise Hart
